Description and Application

SUPERPOWER 90 is a cap-sensitive emulsion explosive having superior rock fragmentation capability designed for tunnel blasting and all kind of underground and surface blasting operations. SUPERPOWER 90 does not contain dangerous explosive chemicals such as TNT and nitroglycerine in its composition. The energy release by detonation is higher compared to the other emulsion explosives. Due to high energy yield and detonation characteristics, SUPERPOWER 90 brings excellent results in blasting operations. SUPERPOWER 90 is designed for all kinds of surface and underground blasting operations.

Field of Use

In all kinds of underground blasting applications,
In open-pit blasting,
In trench blasting,
In presplitting applications,
In secondary blasting applications,
In any kind of special blasting applications.

Advantages

Provides better fragmentation due to high detonation velocity,
Reliability and high performance,
Superior safety against friction and shock,
Low post blasting fumes,
Easy handling and charging of holes.
